"In order to prove that it is my hosta, I specially kept a showkerchief with my name embroidered on it. As for the love poem, it should have been embroidered on the showkerchief long ago and has no other meaning..." Chu Jue peeled off the cocoon and went through it one by one. Analysis, eyes brighter and brighter:
"I understand, that's how it is. My father once said that these aristocratic families fight openly and secretly, and I saw it today!"
The subordinates hurriedly flattered: "My boss is really sharp and he found out this complicated case in one go. Then this Miss Dong... should we let her go now?"
Dong Xiqin just threw away his things.
I haven’t framed my family yet.
Legally speaking, she has not committed a crime and can only be acquitted.
"Wait a minute, continue to lock her up. Just say... cooperate with the investigation and release her after half a month." Chu Jue stopped her and snorted coldly:
"I hate villains the most in my life, so I let her spend half a month in jail."
The subordinate reminded, "But Miss Dong has been forcibly detained for half a month. When the time comes, the Yongning Marquis Mansion will have to intervene with you..."
"I have a reason. Isn't she suspected of colluding with a fugitive? I want to investigate this case slowly. The results will be announced in half a month. This is a serious case involving fugitives, so we should be cautious!" Chu Jie said righteously.
The subordinate smiled bitterly. You have found out the truth today, but in order to protect Dong Xiqin for half a month, you deliberately postponed announcing the outcome of the case until half a month later.
This offends the Yongning Marquis Mansion.
Fortunately, you have a father who is a commander, otherwise your nine lives would not be enough.
"Yes." The subordinate accepted the order.
The case has come to an end for now.
Chu Jue thought of Jiang Rong again and felt something was wrong.
It really feels like I’ve seen it somewhere.
……
Inside Tingxue Pavilion.
Xie Ruojiao stood in front of the window sill on the second floor, feeling very happy as she watched Ming Xinsi take Dong Xiqin away.
"Humph, let her frame me!" Xie Ruojiao was proud.
Xie Lingxi was thoughtful. He always felt that Dong Xiqin was planning something.
Let’s look back at the outcome of the Mingxin Division case.
"Sister-in-law, the trouble has been dealt with, let's have a meal." Xie Ruojiao quickly forgot about Dong Xiqin and recommended something delicious to Jiang Rong.
The waiter brought plates of ice drinks and set a dazzling table.
Especially Sushan in the middle.
There are three colors: imperial concubine red, eyebrow green and thousand-layer snow. The dishes are made of pastry to form mountains and mountains, and the dish lives up to its name.
Supplemented by fruits and flower branches.
Beautiful and delicious.
Finished the meal.
It's noon.
Xie Ruojiao felt that her relationship with her sister-in-law had made great progress. It was a friendship that they had eaten together and cheated on others!
It’s different from before.
"Sister-in-law, let's go to Linglong Pavilion together! Recently, Linglong Pavilion has released a lot of new jewelry, which is so beautiful!" Xie Ruojiao said, pulling Jiang Rong's sleeve.
Jiang Rong had nothing to do at the moment and nodded in agreement.
A group of three people were preparing to leave.
"Prince Concubine, Qiuniang and Mr. Chi are asking for an audience." Jade came to report.
Could it be that something happened in Wanjuan Study Studio?
"Invite them in." Jiang Rong said.
Qiuniang and Chi Moyan hurried in and saluted several people.
Qiuniang said:
"Your Royal Concubine, Song Heng did not come to the study to do any work this morning. He is always punctual and is never late... I thought he might be delayed by something today, so I didn't pay attention. Young Master Caichi came to the study to look for him. …”
Chi Moyan took over and said, "Song Heng and I made an appointment to have lunch together today to discuss schoolwork. Song Heng never fails to make appointments, but today the agreed time came, and he delayed coming. I went to his home to look for him, but the house was empty. No one was there. I went to the study to look for him again, and the shopkeeper said that he had not come today... I was worried that something might have happened to him!"
"He has been missing for a short time, and there is not enough time to go to the government to report the case... But if we wait to find him in two days, I am afraid it will be too late... So I came here to ask for help from the Crown Princess!"
Qiuniang also said worriedly, "In this situation, Mr. Song Heng may not have had an accident."
Jiang Rong frowned, Song Heng is missing?
He lives in the capital, and all traces of him can be traced.
With the intelligence network of the Northern Palace, it should not be difficult to find out his whereabouts.
Jiang Rong looked at Xie Lingxi:
"Husband, maybe you can help me find Song Heng's whereabouts."
"Jingzhe, go check." Xie Lingxi took the order.
It didn't take long.
Jingzhe came back carrying a tightly bundled middle-aged man and threw him in front of Jiang Rong.
This man was bloated, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen after being beaten, and he cried for his father and mother.
"Prince Qi, Crown Princess, this person is Song Heng's eldest uncle. He asked Song Heng for money last night, knocked Song Heng unconscious and sold him!" Jingzhe reported the results of the interrogation.
Xiao Nanxing was shocked, "Sold? Where?"
Jingzhe kicked the man hard, and he cried in a high-pitched voice:
"Chunyue Pavilion! Help, help, Song Heng owes me money, so what's the problem if I sell him to pay off the debt... Who are you, and why are you beating me!"
"Chun Yue Pavilion...where is that place?" Xie Ruojiao asked curiously.
Xiao Nanxing was sympathetic, shocked and incredulous at the same time, "brothel."
Song Heng's uncle owed a lot of gambling debts not long ago.
Song Heng originally owed him two hundred silver. When the study was almost sealed last time, Jiang Rong rewarded everyone with three times the monthly money, and Song Heng paid him back another hundred taels.
This time he was short of money to pay off his gambling debt, so he came to Song Heng to ask for the debt. He also made compound profits without authorization and asked Song Heng to pay back a thousand taels!
How could Song Heng have so much money? All the money had been given to him, not even a tael was left.
Uncle Song Heng couldn't find any money in the Song family, so he knocked Song Heng unconscious and sold him into a brothel.
Because he was fair-skinned and beautiful, had a pine-like figure, was literate, and had the most popular gentle and jade-like temperament, he was sold for a high price, one hundred taels of silver.
"Your Majesty, behind Chunyue Pavilion is Princess Anyang's Mansion." Xiao Nanxing reminded.
The brothels that can be opened in the capital are all backed by powerful people.
Xie Lingxi's eyes were dark.
If it were an ordinary brothel, he would be the first to ask for someone, and they would definitely offer it.
But Princess Anyang targeted Jiang Rong.
If she knew that it was the person Jiang Rong was looking for, she might kill Song Heng first and throw him out, then bite him to death and never take him back...
By then, not even Song Heng's body could be found.
so……
The plank road was built in the Ming Dynasty——
"Husband, I think we can build the plank road openly and covertly cover this matter." Jiang Rong looked at Xie Lingxi with bright eyes.
……
In front of Chunyue Pavilion.
Xie Lingxi kicked the door open.
I was middle-aged, the place had not yet opened, and there were not many customers.
A group of black-clad guards rushed in like wolves and tigers, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, smashing whatever they saw.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?" The old madam rushed up with a sharp voice. Seeing clearly that the person who came was actually Xie Lingxi, she quickly changed her smile:
"I wonder where we have offended the Northern Prince?"
Xie Lingxi looked unruly and didn't bother to say another word to her.
Xiao Nanxing commanded loudly from the side: "Everyone has been smashed! Don't spare any room! If anyone blocks it? Just hit them. Who dares to stop our North Prince's Mansion!"
